Iodomere®

Helps Maintain Healthy Thyroid, Immune, and Cellular Function

Iodine is a trace element and an essential micronutrient, necessary for endocrine

efficiency, normal growth, and cellular function. Iodomere is one of three

Standard Process products that contain iodine and falls between Trace

Minerals-B12

™ and Prolamine Iodine in iodine content. Iodomere also contains

echinacea, which is important in supporting immune function and tissue

maintenance. Carrot root, also contained in Iodomere, provides a natural source

of beta carotene, as well as several antioxidants and nutrients that are important

to cellular, thyroid, and immune function.†

How Iodomere Keeps You Healthy

Supports healthy thyroid function

Iodine is an essential element for the formation of the thyroid hormones

thyroxine and triiodothyronine. These hormones are necessary for boosting

the rate at which oxygen and organic molecules are consumed to produce

energy and heat. Although only very small amounts of iodine are necessary for

normal health, iodine supplementation is, nevertheless, important. The body

cannot store iodine, so it must be ingested regularly to support thyroid

hormone production. Normal thyroid function is necessary for maintaining

the skeletal and central nervous systems. Thyroid hormones also play a key

role in the growth rate of the body, water balance, and numerous other

physiological processes.†

Promotes healthy cellular function

Proper iodine levels help keep the thyroid healthy, which in turn, helps maintain

normal growth and development in children, both physically and mentally.

Iodine also supports reproductive capability and indirectly stimulates protein

synthesis. Iodomere contains carrot root, which supports cellular function by

providing antioxidant protection in the form of a variety of naturally occurring

vitamins and nutrients. Echinacea helps maintain healthy skin and supports the

natural regeneration process.†

Maintains healthy immune function

Iodomere helps stimulate the immune response by increasing the protective

power of certain immune cells. These immune cells engulf and digest

microorganisms, along with any cellular debris. Studies suggest that echinacea

stimulates interleukin, interferon, and T-cell proliferation.†

Whole Food PhilosophyOur founder, Dr. Royal Lee, challenged common scientific beliefs by choosing a holistic approach of providing nutrients through whole foods. His goal was to provide nutrients as they are found in nature—in a whole food state where he believed their natural potency and efficacy would be realized. Dr. Lee believed that when nutrients remain intact and are not split from their natural associated synergists—known and unknown—bioactivity is markedly enhanced over isolated nutrients. Following this philosophy, even a small amount of a whole food concentrate will offer enhanced nutritional support, compared to an isolated or fractionated vitamin. Therefore, one should examine the source of nutrients rather than looking at the quantities of individual nutrients on product labels.

Studies on nutrients generally use large doses and these studies, some of which are cited below, are the basis for much of the information we provide you in this publication about whole food ingredients. See the supplement facts for Iodomere®.
